Re: Why is the system putting my spooled file on Hold?

check the config of the outq - the *PASTHR mentions the hold

subject: Why is the system putting my spooled file on Hold?

I have an interesting situation that is happening on only 1 out of about
50 remote output queues.
We have about Output queues on System A sending spooled files to System

B.

The spooled files are in RLS status on system A, and they show up as RLS
status on System B for all of them, except 1.

We are scratching our heads as to what is different on this One Queue.

I looked at the Spooled Audit Log and found the QSPLJOB job is putting
it on Hold 2 seconds after it arrives on system B.
I don't know why.

Any Insight or ideas from the group?

Thanks,

Gavin Inman
